Da poco Pete Lau's brand has launched its first (after a long time) mid-range and entry level in Europe. It is about OnePlus Nord N10 and N100. After having seen the rather concrete possibility of the launch of a North model cave next year, here comes a news that users who have purchased these models will not like much. According to reports from Android Central, who have been informed by the company itself, Nord N10 and N100 will receive only one major Android release. A somewhat bizarre choice that betrays consumer confidence. In fact, the company is famous for supporting its devices: think of OnePlus 5 which is still updated regularly. But why this choice? Let's try to understand it together.
OnePlus Nord N10 and N100 will update only once: a single update regarding the Android version. Why?
Currently the two devices OnePlus above are updated to the penultimate (in chronological line) Android version, that is 10. According to the brand ad Android Central, Nord N10 and N100 will only receive one Android update, consequently they will reach a maximum of Android 11. But this is not good: consider that the device released before them, the 8T, already arrives with the latest version of the operating system installed. An absurd choice that will not please users.
This is what the Chinese company reported to Android Central:
The Nord N10 5G and N100 will receive only one major Android update and a total of two years of security updates. The plan for these two devices is in line with industry standards for smartphones in more affordable price ranges. As always, we will continue to listen to feedback from our users and look for ways to improve the software experience for all OnePlus devices.

The justification therefore would be that this is the "standard”For the price range. But will the system updates be lasting? In the sense: the promise of the two-year update will be kept? Many are beginning to have doubts about the frequency with which security updates (monthly security patches) will arrive.
As the source states "OnePlus killed Nord N10 and N100 before putting them on sale".
